Love the Eternal Over The Temporal Where the Heart is…

Where are you looking? When driving down the road we can choose to look down the road and be aware of where the turns, bumps, and traffic is. We could choose to look at the windshield, or the hood ornament, if you happen to have the money to own a car that has one of those. If we are looking at our pretty little ornament at the end of the hood we will miss making the right turns that lead to the destination we are heading for.

The same is true in our spiritual lives. We have to keep our eyes upon the eternal Father in order to find our way to His heavenly home. We must learn to love the eternal over the temporal, so that we can reach the goal. John reminds us that all that we know will pass away, and then only the eternal God will last.
